Aging affects neural precision of speech encoding
Older adults frequently report they can hear what is said but cannot understand the
meaning, especially in noise. This difficulty may arise from the inability to process rapidly …

Waiting for lexical access: Cochlear implants or severely degraded input lead listeners to process speech less incrementally
Spoken language unfolds over time. Consequently, there are brief periods of ambiguity,
when incomplete input can match many possible words. Typical listeners solve this problem …

Oral‐diadochokinetic rates for Hebrew‐speaking healthy ageing population: non‐word versus real‐word repetition
Background Oral‐diadochokinesis (oral‐DDK) tasks are extensively used in the evaluation
of motor speech abilities. Currently, validated normative data for older adults (aged 65 years …
